I have a bunch of odds and ends of cotton yarn at the end of each summer. I whipped up some little scrubby friends to help make dishes and bath time more fun. I think these would be great for stocking stuffers, gift baskets and craft fairs too. Scrubby Friends Crochet Pattern The free pattern […]

Weekly Wash #32: Monster Sponge
I’ve had a lot of fun making monsters in the past and I LOVE them all! I had picked up some rectangular sponges at the store (pack of three for under $2) and thought they would be cute monster sponges. I made the middle guy last year, but wasn’t thrilled about the face I had […]
Weekly Wash #31: Monster Spots Washcloths
I’ve been wanting to make some more cloths to go with my monster cloths. Last year I made some circular “Cleaning Spots” to hang by whiteboards and people seemed to love those so I decided monster versions would be fun.

Weekly Wash #30: Ribby Cloth
A few years ago I designed this cloth for my facebook group as a crochet along. So many cute ones were made and people seemed to enjoy this simple but very useful cloth. This past week, while making an extra large version of it for my daughter, I realized I never released this pattern outside […]
Weekly Wash #29: Mini Nancy Cloths
After making some little square cloths and finding so many uses for them, I decided to make more, small versions of some of my favorite cloths. I started with one of the quickest and easiest, Nancy’s Square Washcloths. I hope you will like this quick little project. Similar patterns you might enjoy: Nancy’s Square Washcloths […]
Weekly Wash #28: XL Ribby Cloth
I try to always have a “mindless” project ready for road trips. Something I can work on while also playing co pilot, cruise director, waitress and busboy. When I finish one project I make sure I refill my little on-the-go bag so it is always ready. One thing I usually have going is a dishcloth […]
Weekly Wash #27: Drop Down Cloths
Durable cloths that can actually be used as wash cloths and dish cloths, over and over, are my favorites. These are made with a spike stitch which makes the fabric more dense, plus they are easy to make. These match my “Bee Happy Hanging Towel“, plus a larger version will be available soon too. Drop […]
Weekly Wash #26: Drop Down Towel
This cloth has become my new favorite one. It whips up quickly because it has an easy repeat to remember plus it has a thick texture. It is designed to match my “Bee Happy Hanging Towel“. It starts the same as that towel does so it makes a nice set. This is similar to my […]
Weekly Wash #25: My New Favorite Washcloths
This is my new favorite stitch combo and it because my new favorite washcloth… seemed like a fun (or funny) name for the cloth. ANYWAY, I like how this turned out and it is super quick to whip up. I love those types of projects. Looks like it takes way more time to make. Watch […]
Weekly Wash #24: Hard-Working Cloths
Yes, I do have this thing about crocheting cloths. They are great little projects to work on almost anywhere and in the car plus they are nice to stash away for gifts. But, let’s face it, some cloths are too pretty for scrubbing dishes and many take some concentration to make. These little “hard-working cloths” […]
